Close your eyes and imagine the melodic sounds of these words as you say them: It’s our anniversary! Are you swaying and smiling yet? No doubt, the group Tony Toni Tone definitely etched these classic words in our memories with its musical hit Anniversary. Isn’t it amazing what music can do to enhance a romantic moment? It helps us to notice and bracket our lives in such a way that we can literally roll the tape of our imaginations and recall priceless past love scenes we’ve experienced. But let's be honest, when is the last time we really enhanced the mood for romance with our Boo? Sure, spontaneity can be an awesome way to add spur-of-the-moment fun to intimacy. However, too many of us have gotten caught up in the mundane dutifulness of sex, which is very different from the sensual unfolding of intimacy in our relationships. Hence, the notion of intentional intimacy speaks volumes. It says, “I want you and I’ve been thinking about you too.”

Well, as StillSoSexy! celebrates its first anniversary, we want you to know we’ve been thinking about you--thinking about our past encounters with you our readers as well as the future we hope to share with you. We’ve been getting busy (so to speak) behind-the-scenes with new ideas, discussion topics, and real-time offline projects we hope to bring to you during our second year. And though we’ve been a little quiet lately, we have not left the relationship that we’ve come to love and enjoy right here at our online women’s center. So over the next few weeks you can expect us to bring you more ways to plan some intimate fun with your Boo.

In the meantime, why not plan a little sumthin’ sumthin’ for this week or weekend? Something we like to call “Back-in-the-Day Role Play”! It can be as simple or elaborate as you’d like. First, start by you and your Boo choosing a memorable romantic encounter you've shared together. Next, recall the music of the day (or even the specific event). When you’ve done so, create an internet radio station based on your favorite song or artist; make a homemade greatest hits CD; or, if you’re feeling really nostalgic, pull out some old cassettes and dust off that tape player you have boxed up in the basement. Finally, spend sometime letting you and your Boo reenact the event while playing your favorite music of that chosen past moment. It’s a great way to recapture a sensual memory while creating still-so-sexy memories for future anniversaries.

Enjoy! And we’ll check-in with you soon…
